Newspaper Page Texti Long-Time Lawmakers Can Retire WASHINGTON (UP! I - It Is sometimes said that many mem bers of Congress could make more money in private business. But there is a smaU croup of lawmak ers who might collect about $30 a weeK by not working at all. ,-The group consists of nine Sen ate. and House members who have served in Congress for 32 years or more. If they have contributed to the congressional pension sys tem for all their service these members could collect $18,000 a year. That would be 80 per cent of their present $22,500 govern ment salaries. Actually, any congressman re tiring now at $18,000 probably would have more income after taxes than if lie continued on the job at full pay. This is because the lawmakers like otliers un der similar retirement systems do not pay income taxes on their benefits until they have drawn out the full amount they contributed Under Civil Service Congressmen were brought into the federal civil service pension system in 1946. As a result, none has paid into the fund longer than 17 years. However, members who held other federal jobs before coming to Congress can have such service credited to their record by making retroactive contribu tions. Sen. Carl Hayden, D-Ariz., is at , the top of the list of congressmen who are in line to collect the maxi mum pension, provided he has met all the requirements. Hay- den's 51 years of service 15 in the House and 36 In the Senate means he had completed 34 years in Congress before mem bers even were brought into the . retirement plan. Hayden won a new six-year term last fall and gives no indication he is thinking of retirement. Others In Club . Other members of the elite 32 year club are Reps. Carl Vinson, O-Ga., 48 years: Sen. Lister Hill, D-Ala., 40 years (House and Sen ate i; end Reps. Clarence Can non, D-Mo., 40 years; Emanuel Celler. D-N. Y., 40 years; Joseph W. Martin, R-Mass., 38 years; Speaker John W. McCormack. D Mass., 34 years; Rep. Wright Pat man, D-Tex., 34 years; and How ard W. Smith. D-Va., 32 years. Of course, these nine veterans are not the only congressmen who could collect pensions If they re tired now. The plan provides a long list of options, some of which permit retirement as young as 50 with reduced benefits. v -. !' - .. iii atwmwmwi n rTMITTir ' tal,mm """" I """fllf 1M NEW BOOKS HERALD AVD NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore.
